The Bridge Direct Strawberry Shortcake 35th Anniversary Soft Doll

$19.99

When I was around Tegan’s age, I had a little Strawberry Shortcake doll. She was one of my all-time favorite toys. That was back when Strawberry Shortcake looked like this:

Where does the Strawberry Shortcake come into the story you ask? Well, we did think we were smart by at least putting away all the paint brushes. But my daughter was a tad smarter than us. She dipped her strawberry shortcake doll (hair first) into the leftover paint and used her doll as a paint brush. Bright orange paint on our white bead board. She made a mess. I arrived (ON TIME) to my bible study group that morning with a 3yr old wearing a shirt covered in orange paint, both of us needing prayers!

When we were cleaning out our basement for our move a few months ago, I came across a box that held some of the most beloved of all my possessions: my Strawberry Shortcake dolls.

Cloth Strawberry Shortcake Doll

Ages: 3+

Everyone has a toy that is the most special to them — the object that comes to mind when someone says the word “toy” — and my Strawberry Shortcake dolls are mine. I have fond memories of a lot of my playthings — Barbies, Lego, my Cabbage Patch Kid, Fisher Price toys — but these were the creme de la creme of all of my toys. I played with these constantly. I pined for new dolls. I poured over the little catalogs that came in the boxes. I wanted Strawberry Shortcake clothes and sheets and books and movies. I inserted the word “berry” in conversation more times than I care to admit. In many ways, these toys are a physical manifestation of my childhood. Heady stuff, right?
